ochSimpleFirewall Security Suite - Complete Protection for Your Joomla Website

Keep your website, your content, and your visitors secure with ochSimpleFirewall - a powerful, affordable, and fully automated Joomla security suite.

Are you losing sleep over hackers, malware, or spam bots hammering your site? Is your server under heavy load from AI scrapers that never stop crawling? It's time to take back control.

ochSimpleFirewall has evolved from a trusted single plugin into a complete four-part security package, giving you deeper insight, automated maintenance, and a real-time view of everything being blocked on your site. Same proven protection. Now with a full management interface, background automation, and a live security dashboard right in your Joomla admin panel.

Did you know that automated bots regularly probe your website for vulnerabilities and spam opportunities? Did you know that AI scrapers now make up a significant portion of the load on most public websites? And did you know that dedicated companies actively combat these threats and maintain lists of millions of malicious IP addresses, updated in near real-time?

ochSimpleFirewall taps into these lists automatically, so your site is protected around the clock without any manual effort on your part.

With the new ochSimpleFirewall Security Suite, you gain instant control over who can access your website. Block or redirect visitors whose IP addresses match known offender lists, automatically expire inactive accounts, protect your admin panel, and watch it all happen in real time — directly from your Joomla dashboard.

What's in the Security Suite

The suite consists of four dedicated components that work seamlessly together:

🔧 The Extension > Your Security Control Center: A dedicated interface where you manage block and allow lists, fine-tune your configuration, and view detailed reporting graphs of all blocked activity. Everything in one place, always up to date.
⚡ The System Plugin > The Firewall Engine: The optimized core engine you already trust, now even faster and more efficient. It intercepts threats before they reach your site and redirects malicious bots and scrapers without adding any overhead.
🕐 The Tasks Scheduler Plugin > Automatic Maintenance: No more manual upkeep. This plugin runs silently in the background, automatically refreshing caches, updating GeoIP databases, and handling user account protection — all on schedule, without any intervention needed.
📊 The Administrator Module > Security at a Glance: A real-time widget for your Joomla admin dashboard. See your current security status and blocked activity graphs the moment you log in.
